Four years ago, the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs met in the Super Bowl. Now, we’re getting a rematch.
The 49ers punched their ticket to Las Vegas last Sunday after pulling off a wild comeback against the Lions. The 49ers trailed, 24-7, at the half, but they outscored the Lions, 27-7, in the second half to get the 34-31 win. The Lions were attempting to get to the Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history.
The victory means that the 49ers are now headed to the Super Bowl for the third time in 11 years and eighth time overall. San Francisco’s most recent trip to the big game came in 2019, and that ended with a 31-20 loss to the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV.
As for the Chiefs, they advanced to the NFL’s biggest game by going on the road and beating the Baltimore Ravens, 17-10.
